In a bit of cross-branding, Jon Stewart just stopped by World Wrestling Entertainment, Inc.'s WWE flagship show, Monday Night Raw.
The Daily Show host and WWE superstar Seth Rollins have been in somewhat of a verbal sparring match in recent weeks, with Rollins actually stopping by the Comedy Central show last week.
Rollins and Stewart appeared in a Daily Show-style segment on the Raw. By the end of his 10-minute cameo, Stewart even gave Rollins "punch" to the groin, much to the delight of his hometown New Jersey crowd.
